"Professor Looney has compiled a volume that is sure to become a classic for policymakers on the options for transitioning to an era of energy security, affordable prices, and environmental preservation. While the country chapters afford best policies and roadmaps for every category of country, Professor Looney’s synthesis is their beacon." Hossein Askari, Iran Professor, George Washington University"Climate change is a game changer in the global energy landscape. Energy policies have moved beyond the binary focus on supply security in consumer nations and demand security in producer states. Transitioning away from carbon fuels will be necessary, yet challenging while they are relatively abundant in the wake of the shale boom. There will be great variations between countries depending on their resource endowments, energy mixes, fiscal abilities and policy preferences. This Handbook offers invaluable theoretical insights and case studies to better understand the dialectic between climate and energy, a dialectic that will play a pivotal role in 21st century societies."
